It's not a phase! Edgar Allan Poe is a gothic icon, and we're sure you've heard of his work. If not, maybe crack open a book sometime! Or just listen to this episode, which requires no reading whatsoever, and hear the soothing voice of Aaron guiding John and Sean through the life and death of Edgar Allan Poe. It's basically ASMR, really.

We're taking a quick break this week to get some important life moments done. We'll be back with a regular episode next fortnight, don't fear!

You know it, you love it, it's back for it's third year, it's the Medley of Madness! This year Sean turned to his lovely wife for an idea, and she gave the idea of a game show! Aaron and John battle it out across three different topics to see who knows the most! Hint: It's a stitch up.
